A Lark Ascending Posted July 29, 2013 Report Posted July 29, 2013 Gorgeous here overlooking St Ives bay. Really heavy showers yesterday evening but always ablue bit of sky in view. Best run of weather I've had in Cornwall for some years. Quote
sidewinder Posted July 29, 2013 Report Posted July 29, 2013 Gorgeous here overlooking St Ives bay. Really heavy showers yesterday evening but always ablue bit of sky in view. Best run of weather I've had in Cornwall for some years. Enjoy the Mike Westbrook gig tomorrow night. I'll be in Falmouth - not sure if I can make the trek across the peninsular to St Ives though..

A Lark Ascending Posted July 29, 2013 Report Posted July 29, 2013 Thanks, sidewinder - looking forward to it. It's not far (though I'm sure you have other priorities). Enjoy Falmouth (though I expect you are there for work). Quote
sidewinder Posted July 30, 2013 Report Posted July 30, 2013 Thanks, sidewinder - looking forward to it. It's not far (though I'm sure you have other priorities). Enjoy Falmouth (though I expect you are there for work). Sadly - yes. Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted August 2, 2013 Report Posted August 2, 2013 Two days of overcast while the east of the country baked. Glorious morning today - blue skies over St Ives Bay. Quote
Head Man Posted August 2, 2013 Report Posted August 2, 2013 Stonking hot and sunny this morning......wonderful! Quote
The Magnificent Goldberg Posted August 2, 2013 Report Posted August 2, 2013 Pleasant here. Rain late afternoon/early evening I think. MG Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted August 2, 2013 Report Posted August 2, 2013 Glorious day - did a nice walk from St Just to Sennan Cove. Highly recommended - unlike a lot of the Cornish coast you don't keep meeting gulleys that you have to climb down vertically only to climb 300 steps to get up the other side. Rain moved in at 5.00; just got my tent up during a bright break and now it's monsooning. I have feeling this very mixed weather is going to be with us a while. Quote
sidewinder Posted August 3, 2013 Report Posted August 3, 2013 (edited) I have feeling this very mixed weather is going to be with us a while. Looks as if it's going to be wet in the West Country next week. My garden is appreciating it. Edited August 3, 2013 by sidewinder Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted August 3, 2013 Report Posted August 3, 2013 Another beautiful day today - blue skies with fluffy white clouds interrupted by a couple of short but intense showers. Perfect for a long walk round St Anthony's Head peninsula, parallel to St Mawes. Still lovely now but a very strong breeze. Could be the start of the less pleasant weather sidewinder predicted. Quote
sidewinder Posted August 3, 2013 Report Posted August 3, 2013 (edited) Rain predicted in the West for tomorrow evening and Monday. Wind already picking up a bit round here - a lovely day, nevertheless. Edited August 3, 2013 by sidewinder Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted August 4, 2013 Report Posted August 4, 2013 Godawful today - low cloud and squally rain. Nice choppy ferry crossing from St Mawes to Falmouth (by chance found the bookshop/pub you mentioned, Sidewinder. Very nice - even a special table for your drinks while you browsed the books!) Quote
paul secor Posted August 4, 2013 Report Posted August 4, 2013 Cool (for August) and raining right now. Quote
A Lark Ascending Posted August 5, 2013 Report Posted August 5, 2013 Good lord! Feel like I was blown around Cape Horn last night. After a grim Sunday it really started to blow with relentless rain from around 9.00 PM until dawn. Currently low rain filled cloud for 300 degrees but just the glimmer of something lighter in the south. Oh, the country life. Quote
sidewinder Posted August 5, 2013 Report Posted August 5, 2013 (edited) Oh, the country life. Damp but placid out here. We usually get the wet crap from Cornwall and Devon (attenuated) with a 4-5 hour lag after it hits landfall. That's the main negative of Cornwall and Devon. Too wet ! Sounds like a good day to hit the pub/bookshop/pub-bookshop/coffee shop.. Edited August 5, 2013 by sidewinder Quote
kinuta Posted August 8, 2013 Report Posted August 8, 2013 Very hot and jungle humidity. 33 indoors with all the windows and doors open plus fans . I don't usually use the AC before evening but I might today. Quote
kinuta Posted August 11, 2013 Report Posted August 11, 2013 42C (107.6F) on our balcony at 9.45 am. That's the hottest I've ever known in Tokyo and as hot as Delhi pre monsoon ! Quote
jeffcrom Posted August 23, 2013 Report Posted August 23, 2013 The sun shown brightly and unequivocally in Atlanta this morning, for the first time in - I don't really know - weeks. Many folks don't realize that Atlanta gets more rainfall than Seattle - about 50% more in an average year. Well, we're way off the charts this summer - it has been rainy and overcast every day for weeks here. Everything feels waterlogged, and everyone's yard is as overgrown as mine is, because it hasn't dried up enough to cut the grass. I took advantage of the sun to take a longish (two-mile) walk through the city. It was nice. Of course, it was raining again by evening. Quote
B. Goren. Posted September 24, 2013 Report Posted September 24, 2013 (edited) In Tel-Aviv we can start smelling the autumn. The humidity is not what it used to be two months ago, this morning was a bit rainy and the most important indication that autumn is already here: the squill is blooming.

brownie Posted September 24, 2013 Report Posted September 24, 2013 Summer is back in Paris with a warm 77°F (25°C) that called for a walk through the streets of the city. Same expected tomorrow, then back to Autumn! Quote
JohnS Posted September 24, 2013 Report Posted September 24, 2013 Beautiful day here too, hardly a ripple on the sea. Quote
BillF Posted September 24, 2013 Report Posted September 24, 2013 Here too. It's spreading north. We're doomed! Quote
